Well Beast Wars was my very first exposure to Transformers, I was only a little tacker at the time
so naturally I'd be biased against it now. It is, and I believe will always be, the best Transformers show of all time. As I kid I
loved it, and I can actually remember crying when Dinobot died. Bah go on, poke fun at me!
I know you all wept when Prime died 10 years earlier. I still remember the joy when I opened up an Optimus Primal, which I still have today, on my birthday and the same feeling with my Optimal Optimus at Christmas a couple of years later. Sadly both are in need of repairs now due to love and affection.
But watching it again in 2006 when MadMan released the DVDs I found I could appreciate it even more now than I did as a kid. I tried to like Animated, but I just found it dull and too childish but hey, Hasbro have a market to keep and they're a business. I do wish there was a direct sequel to Beast Machines, and hopefully one that retconns the show entirely anyway, but it wouldn't be economically viable for Hasbro to do it, so they won't.

"Code of Hero" was a very emotional episode, even for adults. It was a fan favourite episode (according to results of the Trannies Awards). To this day I still view it as an absolutely awesome ep. 
I'd rate Dinobot as one of the greatest martyrs of Transformerdom, easily comparable with Optimus Prime/Primal... perhaps even moreso. Self-sacrifice seems to be second nature to any Transformer with the name "Optimus" but for Dinobot it was a far more difficult decision made under far more difficult circumstances.
